The paper under review studies dual canonical bases for the quantum general linear supergroup \(\text{GL}_q(m| n)\) and the quantum special linear supergroup \(\text{SL}_q(m| n)\). The authors first construct a basis for the supergroup \(\text{GL}_q(m| n)\) and show that it is invariant with respect to the quantum Berezinian. A specialization of the Berezinian to \(1\) produces a basis for the supergroup \(\text{SL}_q(m| n)\). The basis elements turn out to consist of linear combinations of certain monomials with coefficients in \(\mathbb{Z}[q]\) and are invariant with respect to the bar-involution of the quantum supergroups. This allows the author to regard these bases as dual canonical bases for the quantum supergroups. These dual canonical bases turn out to be useful for the study of invariant subalgebras. The algebra of functions of the quantum general linear supergroup admits two actions of the quantized universal enveloping superalgebra \(U_q(\mathfrak{gl}_{m| n})\). For any bi-subalgebra \(U_S\) of \(U_q(\mathfrak{gl}_{m| n})\), the subspace of invariants under the left and the right translations with respect to \(U_S\) forms a subalgebra, which may be regarded as the algebra of functions on some quantum homogeneous superspace. In the case \(n=1\) the authors show that any subalgebra of invariants is spanned by a part of the dual canonical bases. This leads to dual canonical bases for any Kac module constructed using a Borel-Weil construction.
